Measuring around corners with ultrasonic sensors

Ultrasonic sensors always emit their sound waves “straight forwards” by nature.

Measuring around corners with ultrasonic sensors
PiL offers tried-and-tested solutions for applications in which the ultrasonic sensors cannot be directly aligned with the object being monitored.

However, the spatial conditions and installation location make it difficult to directly align the sensor housing with the object being monitored in many applications. Redirecting the sound waves using suitable angled reflectors is a practical solution for this problem.

For example, it is not possible to make new installation openings for ultrasonic sensors in many containers whose interiors needs to be monitored. In these cases, the sensors can simply be fitted parallel to the wall of the container on terminal blocks and the sound waves emitted from the sensors can be redirected through an existing opening using 90° reflectors. PiL Sensoren, a leading specialist for ultrasonic sensors, offers tried-and-tested solutions and a comprehensive range of mounting accessories for these types of application.

Alongside ultrasonic sensors suitable for every requirement, the PiL product range includes optimally aligned 90° plastic reflectors, focusing attachments, and flexible metal reflectors for adjusting the angle of the sound wave to the specific requirements of the application. If you have any specific requirements, please contact the application consultants at PiL. You will find contact details at www.pil.de/kontakt.

Application know-how is key
The reliability of measurement solutions not only depends on the use of robust sensor technology, but also on specific design features of the selected sensor models, their application-specific configuration, and correct placement. That is why PiL, as a specialist for industrial ultrasonic sensor technology, supports its customers with comprehensive application know-how, detailed consultation, and where required, is happy to carry out customized modifications of its products as required.
